Fire! Fire!

Imagine London. What do you see in your mind? St Paul’s Cathedral or the Tower of London? Now imagine it all on fire! Flames thirty metres high. Rivers of molten lead in the streets. Stones exploding like grenades. This book will thrust you into the nightmare. It all starts in such a silly way. Some cakes left too long in the oven, in a bakery on Pudding Lane. (Yes, this really happened, 350 years ago.) But now the boy in this story is trapped as Europe’s greatest city blazes around him. How will he escape? Will anything survive the inferno?
